I love Le Guin! I just started re-reading her opus; but since this is a (short) story I might have skipped it the first time.
I also aded some Tschaikowski to my e-reader, if I like that I will try to remember this.
full-blown examinations of the concepts of utterly alien intelligence.
In this context I will always recommend Stanislaw Lem’s “Eden”, although it has little to do with differences in speed.
Yeah, if you’re looking to get into Tchaikovsky, I’d recommend either Children of Time (if you like sci-fi) or The City of Last Chances (if you like fantasy). His work is always based in his experience as a zoologist, so his environments and animals are second-to-none (even the series of which City of Last Chances is a part contains well-considered biology whenever “monsters” from “the grove” are described)

Children of Time is the trilogy that awaits my attention.
